Surprisingly interesting drama

I didn't expect much when I started watching this drama but ended up finishing it within two days without skipping between scenes etc because show is presented such way if it's skipped we will end up missing something as things are connected explanation to a scene before will be given in another scene later like what happened after that scene etc.
There is romance, but it's not the main part of the story, there are Lesbian/Gay supporting characters but don't expect romance like other dramas, I thought reporter friend of FL character would be wasted but as the story progressed she played her part, I liked the friendship shared between ML character & Maggie, also liked her character better than reporter girl, there is a kiss scene between the reporter girl & Maggie which is better than the one shared by the leads because it's hard to say they even kissed. Romance between the girls take an unexpected turn as story progress, but it's not bad it went that way though, as they have their reasons for choosing what they did.
As for story, it centres around Female lead's character who is a lawyer, the cases she handles are interesting but unlike other law dramas don't expect courtroom scenes presented in a glamorous way but rather it's normal courtroom scenes we see FL defending her client and judges hearing the case and later giving their verdict, this drama intention is to give good message to its viewers regarding various issues dealt in the cases like girl forced to get married, pregnant lady getting fired, After death of lover his gay partner getting sued by his family for the wealth, case about a factory worker, case in which male teacher molests a male student, it's hard for me to explain everything so just mentioned this cases to show that the drama is trying to take this cases and show issues faced by various parties in these cases, and how law is used in all this to help the victims etc.
ML character is a minister, and he ends up meeting FL in different situations during his work and later how both of them handle the issues faced by many characters in the story etc.
Also liked the relationship between FL & her daughter, there was a funny scene where FL dreams her daughter asking her who is her father, and we see her in wedding dress among her ex, ML, co-worker and the masked online friend, there was another scene where ML was with an older lady while he is working two female colleagues comes laughing and tells them about them catching the guys watching porn then suddenly that talks leads to talk regarding sex education and how to make law regarding porn etc, I liked how the scene was handled it was a just random scene, but they made that scene a meaningful one for the viewers regarding that topic.
I liked the scenes with the leads, how the interactions between them leads to romance and FL chat with her online friend and the revelation as to who that friend is. The show is different from most Thai dramas that just go the slap/kiss route, even when it's a different genre.
This drama is unlike other Thai dramas no slaps, cursing, beating in the extreme manner or dragging story with pointless things etc, it contains a story that deals with social issues etc and tried to present that in an entertaining manner.
For me, the story was interesting, the cast did well, I liked FL performance in the show first time watching her drama as for ML have seen Kularb Tud Petch enjoyed it, being the reason for selecting this one but ended up liking FL performance as well, liked presentation of Maggie character as well as the daughter character, there was even talks about esports in the drama as one of the character is interested in esports. Most parents don't consider gaming as something good, so even adding that into drama might throw a positive light on selecting gaming as a career for some.
I am not good at writing reviews but decided to write, so anyone interested in the drama know what to expect from the drama.
